Largest Blu-Tack® Sculpture Features in the Guinness Book of World Records!

January 20 2009

Liz showed what a terrific medium Blu-Tack® can be for modelling anything you can imagine!

'Blu-ey' Spider is a giant model of a common house spider made by Elizabeth Thompson.  It went on display as part of the BUGS exhibition at London Zoo in October 2007 to launch a Spider-Man 3 competition.

The artist used 4,000 packs of Blu-Tack® to make the sculpture.  It weighs 200kg (440lb) and has a span of 1.2m (4ft).
